Description
Php-webdriver library is PHP language binding for Selenium WebDriver, which allows you to control web browsers from PHP.
This WebDriver client aims to be as close as possible to bindings in other languages. The concepts are very similar to the Java, .NET, Python and Ruby bindings for WebDriver.
This is new version of PHP client, rewritten from scratch starting 2013. Using the old version? Check out Adam Goucher's fork of it at https://github.com/Element-34/php-webdriver
Looking for API documentation of php-webdriver? See http://facebook.github.io/php-webdriver/

Installation
Installation is possible using Composer.
If you don't already use Composer, you can download the composer.phar
binary:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
Then install the library:
php composer.phar require facebook/webdriver
Getting started
All you need as the server for this client is the selenium-server-standalone-#.jar
file provided here: http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html
Download and run that file, replacing # with the current server version.
java -jar selenium-server-standalone-#.jar
Then when you create a session, be sure to pass the url to where your server is running.
// This would be the url of the host running the server-standalone.jar $host = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub'; // this is the default
-
Launch Firefox:
$driver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, DesiredCapabilities::firefox());
-
Launch Chrome:
$driver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, DesiredCapabilities::chrome());
You can also customize the desired capabilities:
$desired_capabilities = DesiredCapabilities::firefox(); $desired_capabilities->setCapability('acceptSslCerts', false); $driver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, $desired_capabilities);
- See https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/DesiredCapabilities for more details.
